We were all beginners at some point. We at ASEM have always tried to extend a welcoming hand to beginners so that they, too, can enjoy the richness that astronomy can bring to their lives. As such, we have long offered a meeting for beginners at which any, and all, questions are addressed. And we will do it as many times as requested. This meeting is held on the first Tuesday of each month at the Interpretive center.
In addition, we have this page where more experienced amateurs can impart some of their wisdom and registered members are welcome to add to or edit this page to help beginners along the way.
Our first tip is a visit to Tom Richard's "Member Page" , and once there, click on the 'Astronomy Resources for Beginners' link from the menu on the left. On the next page that opens, you will find a list of recommended (FREE) programs and very helpful webpages available on the Internet about Astronomy, what there is to see, and what to use to see (the basics of telescopes and gear).. |
